Remain Nameless — A Distant Shores Playlist for Gracie Lancaster |
Remain Nameless |
I wish to remain nameless and live without shame
'Cause what's in a name? I still remain the same
You can call it what you want, you can call me anything you want
You can call us what you want, you can call me anything you want |
Bag of Bones |
I know my room is a mess, over and over again I tell myself I'll clean tomorrow
Just move the stuff up off the bed, and do what you came here to do
But first open up a window for me
And let the cool air in, feel the night slip in as it softly glides along your back
And I hope you leave right before the sun comes up
So I can watch it alone
Mercy on me, would you please spare me tonight?
I'm tired of this searching
Would you please let me let go? |
I'm Not Calling You a Liar |
There's a ghost in my lungs and it sighs in my sleep
Wraps itself around my tongue as it softly speaks
Then it walks, then it walks with my legs
To fall, to fall, to fall at your feet
Oh, but for the grace of god go I
And when you kiss me, I am happy enough… |
Good Neighbor |
Took a dive with the swans
Out in the commons with nothing on
The mutants stop to savor all my bad behavior
It's all in a day's work when you're a good, good neighbor |
Pomegranate Seeds |
He said, "Will you be mine?" I said, "No, sir"
I begged, "Let me go!" And he said, "No, ma'am" |
Tongues & Teeth |
You gotta know that this won't last
Desperation will erase the fact I'm keeping all
Of the answers in my cigarette box
Yeah, the answer's in the second before the other shoe drops
And if you're blind to that
I am fine with that |
That Unwanted Animal |
And on the creature scratches, it doesn't know how to get out
(Let me out!)
"Be good to me," I beg of him
Be good, be good, be good, be good, be good, be good, be good
And he replies: "No, no, not I" |
The Hand That Feeds |
He taught me that the hand that feeds
Deserves to be bitten when it beats |
Fire With Fire |
And I have nothing here for you
All this water's gone and you, you've done nothing here for me
Except I know that I can't breathe
Now, will someone tell me who I am? |
GOSSIP |
Welcome to the city of lies
Where everything's got a price |
Prostitution Is the World's Oldest Profession
(And I, Dear Madame, Am a Professional) |
Do you know who I am? Good, neither do I
Got nothing to say, but if you pay me I can play the fool
Go on, believe if it turns you on; take what you need 'til your body's numb
Prostitution is revolution; you can hate me after you've paid me
My submission is your addiction, so just get it while you can |
Girl is a Gun |
It's a shot in the dark; I'm not a walk in the park
I come loaded with the safety switched off |
Playground |
Welcome to the playground, follow me
Tell me your nightmares and fantasies
Sink into the wasteland underneath
Stay for the night, I'll sell you a dream |
White Rabbit (Jawster Remix) |
I've got, I've got, I've got somethin' that you gotta have
I'm the worst habit that you ever had, that you ever had
White rabbit runnin' through the grass |
Lover To Lover |
And I've been taking chances
I've been setting myself up for the fall
And I've been keeping secrets
From my heart and from my soul
Going from road to road, bed to bed
Lover to lover and black to red
But I believe |
Reflections are Protection |
My reflections are protections
They will keep me from destruction
My directions are distractions
When you're ready, come into the light |
Siren |
You'll be seein' me in your dreams and
I'll be there when your reality drowns |
Devil's Worst Nightmare |
I've tasted fire, I've felt the burn of bittersweet
Oh, sacrifice
I know you all too well, your sister love, your brother misery
Come a bit closer; got a secret inside
I don't mind all the chaos; it keeps me alive
Just 'cause I look like an angel don't mean I won't get down in the dirt
Just 'cause I look like a good girl don't mean I won't do the things that hurt
Beware evil, I'm the devil's worst nightmare |
Enemy |
They say pray it away; I swear that I'll never be a saint, no way
A chair in the corner is my place I stay
I shake and I think about the powers at play
The powers at play |
Abbey |
There is a light, I feel it in me
But only, it seems, when the dark surrounds me
There is a dream and it sleeps in me
Keeps me awake in the night
Crying, "Set me free"
And I wake every night
Crying, "Set me free" |
I am not a woman, I'm a god |
Maybe I could be a better human with a new name
Oh, I just wanna feel something, tell me where to go |
New Invention |
You've got the devil on your shoulder
You better shut your mouth, just like I told you
I'm having bad dreams
And nothing you can do will keep the bad things
Away from me until I fall asleep |
Good Grief |
This time my best wasn't good enough
Well, fuck
Usually it is
But the air got a little rough
Took out the fuselage, the engine, and both wings
But I'm willing to work for this
Just show me where to dig
And I'm ready to hurt for this
I know exactly what this is — |
Deep Stays Down |
There's a bullet in the gun, the gun went missing
Suspicion blew up like a shotgun shell
Zipping your lips, keep the truth in prison
Gonna throw away the key like you can't make bail
Cat's in the bag, the bag's in the river
And the river runs deep and the deep stays down
Better dot your I's, the lie's getting bigger
Don't lead 'em to the needle in the haystack
The deep stays down, the deep stays down
The river runs deep and the deep stays down |
A Lady |
I know a lady, good and evil
Showed me that I was a gentle man
Wait for the girl to blossom into
Colors that grow where you can |
Après Moi |
Après moi, le deluge
After me, the flood |
